@sometherapist This happens frequently in families who have boys who are trans-identified. Mothers who do not suddenly take their son to get a makeover and buy him a bra are abusive. Sisters say that they feel their brothers are trying to "skinwalk" their lives. We get no support, either.

My son declared he was a non-binary demi-girl during the Covid lockdowns. The categorization was the result of a quiz he took that declared him 80% female. Until this point, he did not have any signs of gender dysphoria. The identity caused the dysphoria.

Schools, the media, doctors, libraries, etc. tell my son I hate him. I don't believe cross-sex hormones will fix his problems. I want him to grow up with a functional body. I do not believe a male can have a female brain. I'm so tired. #rogd_boys_exist

Did you know? For many teens, a trans-id seems to be an attempt to avoid growing up. Both boys and girls say that they can't imagine themselves as "men" and "women". They are afraid of puberty because it means they are becoming adults. #rogd_boys_exist

For some reason, girls are viewed as complex emotional creatures while boys are not. In reality, boys are equally complex & seek connection. Many boys & young men take refuge in toxic online communities & are highly susceptible to peer influence.

@gigilarue4 @elonmusk The pressure to just go along with it is enormous. My son also started his trans ID 5 years ago - right before the shutdowns. Resources were not readily found then. I have a PhD in biochemistry. I could find & understand the research. I saw it was BS. Not many have that training.

In my son's peer group, 25 of 32 kids were "trans". The rest were "allies". All were involved in the secret GSA club that met during lunch at school. Yet somehow I am supposed to believe that ROGD does not exist and that boys are immune from social contagion. #rogd_boys_exist

Teenage years are a time of identity development. Joining a clique/group is normal. Past names include jocks, popular kids, Goths, nerds, bands kids etc.. Now we see trans, ADHD, depressed groups. This is the impact of ideology and social conditioning. It's damaging.

@ChrisFourOhFour You can't "prove" that trans is an innate identity if you don't have kids who are trans. You can't get sympathy for adults like you can for kids. It's easier to convince children of ridiculous things. It goes on and on, and I quickly find myself in conspiracy theory territory.

Did you know? ROGD boys may be influenced by online pornography, but often display a marked lack of interest in, and even a distaste for, sexuality and their own bodies. Others struggle with internalized homophobia. #rogd_boys_exist

Teens are not only self-diagnosing as trans, but also a wide variety of other ailments. Autism, ADHD, DID, OCD, tourettes...the list goes on and on. Many of them develop symptoms that would support these diagnoses and get dr's to medicalize for them.

Did you know? The commonly used "41% of trans youth have attempted suicide" statistic was based on a survey with significant irregularities. In reality, suicide is very rare for trans-identified people. #rogd_boys_exist

Gender dysphoria is not diagnosable beyond self-reporting. It is not scientific. It is not medicine. It is a scandal of epic proportions. Why did my family have to flee our home & move across the country to escape a made up condition? #rogd_boys_exist

Members of #rogd_boys_exist are seeking more nuanced explanations of why teen boys are being encouraged and enabled to think they are actually girls. We do not deny sexual gratification could motivate them. We want real help before they self destruct.

A common theme discussed among parents with trans-ID teens is the rewriting of family history and demanding changes to memories. The result is that the family has no shared history that can be used to maintain ties or strengthen bonds. #rogd_boys_exist

Did you know? There is no consistent screening process to determine which teens will benefit from cross sex hormones, and which will be harmed. There is no therapy requirement. Traditional medical ethics are not applied to these cases. #rogd_boys_exist

Nuremberg Code #5 : No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur Once a trans-id boy is medicalized his mortality risk is 80% higher than non-medicalized males. #rogd_boys_exist

@Psychgirl211 Sometimes it's difficult to determine what part is medicalization, and how much is simply obsessive rumination of identity which overtakes everything else. In my case, I feel like there is some type of induced psychosis, because he is so disconnected from reality.

Did you know? Exploratory therapists, teachers & parents have noticed that many boys coming of age today struggle to develop a positive view of themselves as men and for this reason may take flight into a transgender identity. #rogd_boys_exist @elonmusk

A familiar technique in current discourse: The logical fallacy called "Appeal To Authority" occurs when someone dismisses an argument/claim not based on the actual merits of the argument/evidence, but on the perceived authority/credentials of the person making the argument.

@KDansky @POTUS It's ironic that many of us gender atheist parents are logical thinkers in law, STEM, etc. & also more likely to have a kid caught up in this (family propensity for autism, rumination, OCD, etc.) It takes time to realize we are fighting a web of incoherence that rejects logic.

The serious health effects of low testosterone in males is well documented. Why, then, are doctors pretending that these effects are unknown or unimportant in trans-ID males? Gender "medicine" is not about health.

My first exposure to trans was my best friend growing up. I met her in 1985, and we are still friends. Her father was a classic AGP adult male, and every year he escalated a little more. This has affected her entire life.

@SummerYuleRDN This happened to us. In front of us. We never went back to that doctor. Or the next one. It happened multiple times, and I don't know if that damage can be undone. I know I will never leave my youngest child alone with any doctor. My trust in the profession is now -100%

@JanuaryDoNoHarm @libsoftiktok @ConceptualJames @Moms4Liberty Part of the problem is that keeping your own child off social media is not enough. If all of the children around them, or even a large minority of them, are allowed access to social media, all children will still be exposed.

ROGD boys have always been quirky & sensitive. They reportedly had difficulty fitting in with their peer group from an early age, experiencing intense social anxiety and isolation. After they say they are trans, they are celebrated. #rogd_boys_exist

Covid lockdowns did not help with the addiction to screen time. In fact, in some cases, it seems to have started the problem.

Trans-identified and gender-questioning adolescents engage in significantly more recreational screen time and exhibit higher rates of problematic screen use compared to their peers.

A thought experiment: 2 people, both XY. Both claim to have female gender identities. One believes he is telling the truth; one knows he is lying. How does a doctor tell them apart? Gender identity: unfalsifiable & unscientific. #rogd_boys_exist

Many thoughtful people are skeptical about the trans indoctrination, but they are afraid to push back. It only takes one bully to terrorize an entire school, workplace, community, or family. We must empower those around us to speak up. #rogd_boys_exist
